Sadly, the plumbing woes did not end with fixing the leaky drain pipe. But the experience of not rushing to solutions came in handy upon discovering the kitchen sink is leaking. Well, not the sink actually. And thankfully. The undermount sink is failing, as in falling down. There’s a space now between the sink and countertop,…

Nothing like wringing in the new year by discovering a leaking pipe. Crap. So much for catching up on some work. Mind glommed onto the problem and began racing through solutions as if survival of the planet was at stake. Water! Water! Water! Fix! Fix. Fix! Double crap. Of course, this had to happen…

While I don’t have much in the way of a New Year’s tradition, my parents did. For more years than I can remember they would go out for dinner with the same couple. Occasionally, other couples would join to expand the festivities, but there would always be the four of them. After dinner, they would…

Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been trying to think of something fitting for Christmas. Perhaps along the lines of a gift for you. Nothing witty. Didn’t have to be profound. In the Warm & Fuzzy ballpark would do. And nothing came to mind. Total. blank. Figures. I was looking forward to this…

I was stuck in place for not wanting to stick my hand in a blender – under purposefully made safe conditions (don’t try this at home). Faced with reconciling not being able to move forward and going against everything I’d been taught…

Wednesday was an interesting drive into the city. While not feeling nervous about the lengthy dental appointment ahead of me, I didn’t want to think about it either. With a good hour of Mind being distracted with driving duties, it was the perfect time for obserflecting on what has been appearing of late. Funnily enough, what popped…

Apparently, the rebellion continues. I was worried about missing two Letters. Ha! This makes five weeks since the last one. Seriously. Five! How did that happen? More importantly, what gives? All ready and excited to write last week … and shingles start blowing off the garage roof. Then I come down with the flu. Might…

Some minute musings about what wanted attention this past week: Stuck at first thought Our group of fearless friends ventured into another escape room last Saturday. Being the first room at a new-for-us location, I eagerly anticipated some new twists on familiar puzzles and locks. The theme had our group split into two rooms. That…

Last December I recorded Nova’s Bird Brain and finally had a chance to watch it. The promo mentioned crows and I’ve heard they are very intelligent. Have to say after watching the show, birds are rather spectacular. They’re not just pretty faces feathers either. One species use tools. Many solve problems and can apply past learnings to entirely…
